Drupal 7.x

As a newbie I created a content type to experiment with that process. I then deleted it. Now when I try to create any content I get a message "You have not created any content types yet. Go to the content type creation page to add a new content type." However "admin/structure/content types" shows the original content types (article, basic page etc.) What have I miss-set and how do I get it back ? Thanks for any assistance!

Hi, I have a local installation of Drupal 7.x and when i try to change the theme away from the default I get the error message

"ukmprods2 was not found"

This error message remains the same whichever theme i choose, and ukmprods2 does not exist within my theme dir in xampp, it is however a theme for shopify that I have outside of xampp on my hdd, can anyone please explain why Drupal is looking outside of itself for the theme to activate and how i might rectify this and get it to activate the right theme? I've tried re-installing Drupal to no success although a local version of 6.20 can change themes fine so the problem is isolated to Drupal 7.x - also if i manually modify the settings.php line here >>>

$conf['theme_default'] = 'bartik';
to a different theme name the theme successfully changes, so the problem only occurs when i attempt to change the theme through the admin panel

I have tried debugging the issue and have found this - not sure if it helps >>>
Debug:

'token' => 'xsGu_87J7ImKd-9CSE6dtjLeI_x_9lBlPSPgLgtQcug',

Now that I threw everything (except the kitchen sink) at this one site, I realize that I have not been as methodical as I should have been. I know that there are some modules that I am not using. Some have already been inactivated and most have been uninstalled. A few of them were deleted from the module folder, whew!

Got following error:

Failed to connect to your database server. The server reports the following message: SQLSTATE[HY000] [2005] Unknown MySQL server host 'localhost:/tmp/mysql5.sock' (1).

While "localhost:/tmp/mysql5.sock" has no problem to hook up with Joomla (Sorry, no offense).

Please advise.

Much obliged,
Donald

I would like to have a longer slogan than D7 will allow. Does anyone know if you can set the default max characters value for the slogan field to something higher than it currently is?

Hello all,

I'm trying to come up with a solid "Countdown to Date" solution that countdowns live by seconds and can be reasonably styled. This is for a Drupal 7 install. I've looked at a few modules, specifically The Javascript Timer module and the jQuery Countdown module. To no avail though. I couldn't seem to get either of them to function properly.

Any recommendations? Demonstrations of a site you've built that uses on of these (or another) countdown module?

Thanks in advance,
~Dale
